Cement Australia has entered into a new three-year rail haulage agreement with Pacific National, one of Australia's largest rail freight businesses, to transport ISO containers of cement, sand, fly ash, slag, lime annually for its many customers across Australia.
This includes the interstate and inter-city transport of cement and supplementary cementitious materials between major capital cities and throughout North Queensland.
Cement Australia supplies essential materials to some of the largest government sponsored and/or privately funded critical infrastructure projects in the nation.
Both Pacific National and Cement Australia play a critical role in enhancing the safety, efficiency, and sustainability of Australia’s vast supply chain.
Compared to road freight transport, rail haulage operations are more fuel efficient and so provide a lower-emissions transport solution for customers.
